A copy of th* letter was mailed to The Atlanta Georgian, but tta transmission was In some manner delayed, so that It failed fo appear In this nowspaper when pub lished by other Atlanta newspapers. Following Its determined policy of fair- ne«a and lmi»artlallty to all those In volved or Interested In tho campaign, Th.- Georgian prims Judge MoWii.o-. ler's letter, despite It* lntcness. ns fol lows: “Athens. On.. .June At. 1908.—II. J. Rowe, Athens, Ga My Dear Mr. to Influence lilm to vote for or against either candidate. "After Mr. Weat waa elected I did not ask him to appoint any senator aa chairman of any committee or to as sign any senator to any committee or to do anything el** in favor of my friends, myself or my client, and If this statement Is not absolutely true Mr. West will disaffirm It. "In'Mr. Morris' contest for speaker, 1 Joined his other friends In supporting him. 1 did it, openly and frankly. They had been my friends when I was a can didate for office—I appreciated at the and d|t| personal sense of grateful obligation, nil as any other candidate would personal sense of grateful obi' and therefore for supporting have no explanation or apology make, because I would do the same thing again, for the man who deserts, without cause, Ills friends In the time of need doe* not deserve friend and should not have one long. "After-Mr. .Morris* election, however, J did not request the appointment of any member as chairman of any com mlttee or request the assignment o any member to any committee or re ijucst Sir. Morris to do anything else In favor of myself, my friends or my client. _ _ r __ "I have heard that Mr. Morris Is sup Rowe: I have read your editorial notice !

In which you refer to his attack on mb nnd others, nnd bis perslstentSeffort to raise for ciini- palgn purposes what faas boon termed th* 'bugaboo' of railroad domination. A I urn n private citizen and net a candidate fur any' office, 1 have re frained from replying to these unpro voked nttucks for campaign purposes which Hoke Smith has been making upon me with more or less seeming venom throughout the state. "My neighbors and those who know me are aware of the fact that I have not participated or taken any active part In the pending gubernatorial cam paign, and up to this date I have neith er Influenced or sought to Influence any friend to vote for or against either candidate. "In spite of this fact, however, Hoke Smith, ns a part of hla campaign scheme of alleged railroad domination, haa fabricated and exaggerated my relation with others to It by slanders and Insinuations, both false and con temptible. Smith’s Methods Those of Thug. ‘But his references, so far ms 1 am aware, have always been vague and Indefinite, though false and exagger ated. that no fitting reply could have been made except to have denounced It as the method of the thug and the charcter of an aespsaln, which no brave and honorable man would adopt, and therefore over the protest of my friends,-I-have remained silent, assum ing that a sense of decency would ulti mately restrain him, but In view of his attack on Saturday In the city of my residence, forbearance cease* to be a virtue and I feel constrained there fore, to make the following personal statement: "For tho past eleven years I have represented tho Southern Railway Ooiflpdny, flret os advisory counsel for Gcorgln, and more recently aa assist ant general counsel lor the entire sys tem. , ,. > During this time I have appeared ror fity client beforo the Courts, the rallrodd ’commission, tho 1 comptroller general, boards of arbitration, tho leg islature, municipal corporations, and, In face, wherever duly called and Its Contemptible By-Play. "In this connection Hoke Smith In dfilgaa In a contemptible by-play to Impugn my motives in supporting Mr. Morris, which he knows Is. false. "He quotes mo ns saying That the railroads elected Morris, but did not lie,-biro iiu\ .Ik M.-ti-l- -’ll It.’ "Thero Is Just enough truth In this allseed quotation to make Its hypo critical proposition more despicable. “The Incident of the alleged remarks waa Insignificant and occurred aa fol lows: Some time after Mr. Morrla' election, or about four years ago, went Into the Piedmont for dinner, happened there to meet Mr. Morrla and several of hla friends who were Induc ing In a friendly conversation. They \vere, aa Is usual among friends, In cldentally Joking each other, and aa walked up Mr. Morris had Juat made some jocular and cutting remark—oa I now recall It—to Hon. B. S. Miller, to which Mr. Miller, In like spirit, replied, ‘that he need not talk ao big—that while he was speaker, the railroads elected him,' or words to that affect, and as I walked up he turned and re marked, ‘What about that?’ "Naturally I replied In the same It that, ‘If the railroads did sleet „<■■■ they did not declare any dividends on It.' * Incident Wae Jocular. “This Incident was Jocular and waa ao understood at the time, and waa without the slightest reflection either In word, thought or Insinuation—oth erwise It would have been Insulting to Mr. Morris. "It was Just such Jocular badlnagi under the license of Intimate friend- Into a _ . . pent ‘ slllanlmous nnd despicable. "If the jocular remarks of Intlmnte friends throughout tho stats could be distorted Into a serious reflection whenever It served some sinister or selfish purpose, then no man In Geor gia would have any more ahred of character than Hoke Smith seam* to rights nnd interests were Involved. "I ’ havo represented It openly and honorably nnd to the very beet of my bllltyi and I purpose to continue to do o as. long as the relation of attorney and Client exist*. “This Is my manifest duty, and the man-who deviates and swerve# from his rightful course because of unjust criticism or Indecent abuse Is false to duty and will rarely be right. "During this time I have often rep resented It before the railroad com mission, of which Hon. J. Pope Browi was an honored and honorable mem ber, and as he Is reported to be sup porting Mr. Smith, I will leave It ti him—or any other " members of the railroad commission during all these Naval Instructor Retires.

"I have often represnted It on tax questions and assessments before Comptroller General Wright—whose honor and Integrity no man will Im peach—and I will leave It to him to say If I have ever swerved In behalf of my client from a frank, honorable and open course. "As other lawyers representing cor porate or Individual clients, I have often during thl# period appeared be fore legislative committees In reference to pending bills affecting my client’s rights and. latereats, but no member of the legislature, however partisan he la or prejudiced he may be, or whom soever he may be supporting for gov ernor, will.pay that 1 have ever sought wrongfully or Improperly to influence his Judgment or his vote. "In fact, since I began to represent the Southern railway I have appeared for It before every form of tribunal In this state 'where Its rights and Inter ests are considered and determined, and I have'always openly, frankly and honorably,' but to tha vary beet of my ability, undertaken to establish the fairness and justice of the views which I presented In Its behalf. “My plain professional obligation Is to represent In good faith th# right# end Interests of my client wherever duty calls and In whatever tribunal It* rights and interests may be Involved, and I purpose to continue to do so.

T am making these broad assertions and am leaving th* truth of them to others, some of whom, I am Informed, are supporting Hoke Smith, but who are honest and honorable men, because I am supremely conscious of the recti tude of my conduct and the sincerity of this statement. Climax of 8mith’s Hypocritical Hya tsrla. "But Hoke Smith reaches the cli max of Ills hypocritical hysteria In his campaign speeches In his rsferenco to me when, with uplifted hands, he vows that he does not wish my support and that he would retire from the race It I supported him. “This Is a new and distinct masque- "On May 86, 1104, or scarcely a year before he was a candidate for gover nor, I received th* following letter from him: "’Law offices Hoke Smith, H.
